Punctuality Module
In the first module of this project, the punctuality of trains has been addressed and is called as Punctuality Module. This module was implemented in Feb.’ 2004.This is running on PRS/NTES network and is on the same hardware of NTES. This module captures the delays involved in train running at interchange points and detention causes for the delays at the divisional level. Zonal client does the responsibility fixing. Based on this input reports are generated for traffic managers. Zonal client does the responsibility fixing. Based on this following types of reports are generated for traffic managers
- Railway Punctuality Performance for a date for a Division
- Movement of Trains Division wise in a Zone
- Punctuality percentage of Mail/Express
- Cause wise/Gauge Wise breakup of Lost Trains between dates
- Division wise analysis of Cause of Lost Trains on Date in a Zone
- Railway Punctuality performance for a date in a Zone
- Cause wise breakup of Trains lost in a period
- Summary of Monitored trains daily Run and Lost
- Section wise/Cause wise analysis for all trains on a date
- Zone wise/Cause wise analysis for all trains on a date etc
This module will be migrated to the same platform on which Coaching Stock Module will reside to give user friendly browser based forms and reports. This module has been developed on the new platform and is under lab testing.
Coaching Stock Module
This is a web based application and will run on intranet (FOIS network). This module will capture all the events done on Coaches during operations (e.g. Attach/Detach/Sick Marking/Made Fit etc) to generate an on line position of Coaching Stock. As all locations are networked and a centralized database is available, this will be a utility tool for traffic managers.
- To monitor the condition and location, status and history of the coaching stock.
- To monitor the coaching rakes, their locations, arrival – departure.
- To generate stock reports
- To find Coaches in Foreign Railways
- To plan special trains
- To provide data for planning and rescheduling of rakes.
- To optimize utilization of each coach and timely maintenance (POH) and repairs.
- For prompt planning for idle coaches and their timely bookings and usage to generate more revenue for the railways.
- Through mailing and messaging end users may communicate.
Ideally there will be no requirement of census to know the current stock position of Indian Railways once the above module is in data feeding mode at all the locations.
Coaching Maintenance Module
This module is in the stage of requirement analysis. The implementation will start by 1st March.’2007.This module will capture the depot activities related to coaching maintenance operations, this will be a utility tool for mechanical managers to help them in planning of schedules. This will capture broadly following functionalities.
- Platform and enroute attention module
- Enroute rolling in and rolling out
- Brake Power Check, Train watering, Gang booking
- Washing line and sick line Placement Module including Pit line occupation status, placement advice, Rake fitness and withdrawal advice etc.
- Depot Maintenance activities including all types of component based maintenance.
- Material Management which will include Depot stores management, indent flow etc.
- Staff Module to include muster roll preparation, staff skill development etc.
- Functional modules for superior management(Divisional, Zonal and Railway Board)
This module will be having a tight integration with Coaching Stock Module and handshake will be done in various events.
Time Tabling Module
- To maintain a centralized database for all trains of Indian Railways with following attributes.
- Train Definition, Validity period of the train definition, Days of Run, Train Profile, Train Schedule (List of stations with timings) etc.
- Giving facility to update the time table through browser based application by all zonal railways at the time of time tabling and providing soft copy for printing of IR Time table.
Other than the above following will also be captured in the scope of Time tabling module.
- Simulating the suitable timings for running of all kinds of trains.
- Simulating the best available path for planning a train keeping in view all variables.
